When the gear teeth of N gear are through crankshaft position sensor, this crankshaft position sensor produces pulse.This N gear rotates with engine crankshaft.Control module such as engine control module (ECM) receives this pulse and determines speed of crankshaft based on rotary distance between the gear teeth involved by the interval between two pulses and the two pulse.The rotating speed determined based on the interval between having separated more than or equal to two pulses of 90 degree of rotary distances is properly termed as low resolution speed.The rotating speed determined based on the interval between having separated less than two pulses of 90 degree of rotary distances is properly termed as high-resolution speed.
This N gear can have the space (i.e. N=60) for such as 60 equidistant gear teeth.This N gear can include roughly equidistant 58 gear teeth and lack to fall the breach of 2 roughly equidistant gear teeth.Therefore, the ad-hoc location (such as edge) of each gear teeth (including hypodontia) can separate the rotary distance of substantially 6 degree (360 degree/60=6 degree).But, the rotary distance between the ad-hoc location of the continuous gear teeth can change.In other words, it is possible to the change of the rotary distance existed between the ad-hoc location of two continuous gear teeth.This change can be owing to such as difference between manufacturing tolerance, part and part and/or other source one or more.
This ECM optionally learns the rotary distance between every pair of continuous gear teeth of N gear.Based on interval between pulse in this study distance and crankshaft-position signal, this control module produces engine rotational speed signal.This ECM is also to the application filtering of this engine rotational speed signal.This engine rotational speed signal is corresponding to the instant engine rotating speed at specific crank position.
Two or more instant engine rotating speeds of ECM predetermined crank based on the burn cycle position of the present invention square determine the indicated work that cylinder combustion circulates.This ECM determines, based on this indicated work, the indicated mean effective pressure (IMEP) that cylinder combustion circulates.Whether this ECM can use this IMEP to occur in such as determining cylinder misfiring, adjust burn cycle in the future during supply to the fuel of cylinder, ignition timing during next burn cycle of adjusting cylinder and/or carry out that one or more other is movable.
Referring now to Fig. 1, describe the theory diagram of exemplary vehicle system 100.Electromotor 102 produces torque for vehicle.Air sucks in electromotor 102 via inlet manifold 104.The air-flow entered in electromotor 102 can be changed by air throttle 106.Throttle actuator module 108(such as electronic throttle controller) control air throttle 106 aperture.One or more fuel injectors such as 110 fuel of fuel injector and air are mixed to form flammable air/fuel mixture.Fuel actuator module 112 controls this fuel injector (or multiple).
Cylinder 114 includes the piston (not shown) being connected with bent axle 118.Although electromotor 102 is depicted as including single cylinder 114, but electromotor 102 can include more than one cylinder.One burn cycle of cylinder 114 can include four strokes: induction stroke, compression stroke, expansion stroke and exhaust stroke.One cycle of engine includes that each cylinder experiences a burn cycle.
During induction stroke, piston drops to extreme lower position, and air and fuel can be supplied to cylinder 114.This extreme lower position can be referred to as lower dead center (BDC) position.During compression stroke, 118 pistons of bent axle are driven onto topmost position, thus the air/fuel mixture in compression cylinder 114.This topmost position can be referred to as top dead centre (TDC) position.In various types of electromotors, spark plug 120 can light air/fuel mixture.Spark actuator module 122 controls spark plug 120.
During expansion stroke, the burning of air/fuel mixture to BDC position, is thus rotatably driven bent axle 118 piston refoulement.This revolving force (i.e. torque) can be the source of the compression stress of the compression stroke of the burn cycle of next cylinder in predetermined ignition order.During exhaust stroke, the waste gas that the burning of air/fuel mixture obtains discharges cylinder 114.Camshaft phaser 124 controls inlet valve and/or the aperture of exhaust valve (or multiple) of cylinder 114.More specifically, camshaft phaser 124 controls the rotation of camshaft (not shown) to control inlet valve and/or the aperture of exhaust valve (or multiple).Phaser actuator module 126 controls camshaft phaser 124.
Crankshaft position sensor 130 monitors N gear 132 and rotation based on N gear 132 produces crankshaft-position signal 134.The most for example, crankshaft position sensor 130 can include VR (VR) sensor or the crankshaft position sensor of other suitable type.N gear 132 rotates with bent axle 118.N gear 132 includes the space for N number of equidistant gear teeth.
Whenever the gear teeth (rising edge of the such as gear teeth or trailing edge) of N gear 132 through crankshaft position sensor 130 time, crankshaft position sensor 130 produces the pulse in crankshaft-position signal 134.Therefore, each pulse in crankshaft-position signal 134 can correspond to bent axle 118 equal to 360 degree divided by the angle rotation amount of N.The most for example, N gear 132 can include the space (i.e. N=60) for 60 equidistant gear teeth, and therefore each pulse in crankshaft-position signal 134 can correspond to the bent axle rotation of about 6 degree.In different embodiments, that can save in these N number of gear teeth is one or more.The most for example, in different embodiments, two in these N number of gear teeth can be saved.
Electromotor 102 transmits torque to variator 140.Variator 140 can include manual type transmissions, automatic type variator, automatic-manual type variator or the variator of other suitable type.Variator 140 can transmit torque to one or more wheel (not shown) via transmission output shaft 142 and power drive system (not shown).
Although the rotary distance between the continuous gear teeth of N gear 132 should equal (6 degree in such as previous example), but the rotary distance continuously between the gear teeth can change.This change can be owing to such as difference between manufacturing tolerance, part and part, abrasion, sensor differences and/or other source one or more.
Engine control module (ECM) 160 optionally learns the distance between every pair of continuous gear teeth of N gear 132.Based on this study distance and crankshaft-position signal 134, ECM 160 produce the second crankshaft-position signal.ECM 160 produces engine rotational speed signal based on this second crankshaft-position signal.Engine rotational speed signal at specific crank position characterizes the instant engine rotating speed at this crank position.
